The cooking coals dimmed.
We settled back on the brick
patio, watching the day's
last rays disappear behind
the ancient canyon walls surrounding
us, their jagged ivory-and-rust
silhouettes soon melting into
black nothingness lit by a
thousand stars. A chorus of
yowling coyotes rose, then
stopped, then began again.
After trolling my flashlight
beam through the sagebrush
in search of lurking wildlife,
I slipped through the sliding
glass door into our very special
retreat: a privately owned
house within the borders of
Zion National Park. Zion is
one of Utah's most visited
parks, yet we had an entire
valley all to ourselves at
Dan Parkinson's Los Gatos
Ranch. A half hour from the
nearest conveniences, the
home sits alone amid rustling
rye fields at the base of
a hulking 6,430-foot Tabernacle
Dome. |
